Im not tryin to go bling with this , just wanted it to look a bit sporty , chrome doesnt do anythin for me , painted the drum brake and calipers n it looks gud

yeah bling doesnt go2 well with the good old school boxy cars. sporty is the look im after, not to over riced, you shoulda seen my old cars interior. its on my website...u aint seen rice till u have seen it! and im going to customise the interior of my new car aswell. i think it looks awesome that way, better than the stock bown

car looks good. your plans sound good but like on Monster Garage....you want to make it cool but still keep the stock look and i think most people will agree.
